a cease fire to an strikes which have killed five israelis and more than one hundred fifty palestinians the truce began shakily with several rockets fired into southern israel after the deal was sealed here is our correspondent in tel aviv policy. no ceasefire ends some of the fiercest fighting we've witnessed in years between israelis and palestinians if indeed the truce holds it will mean that roughly one point seven million gazans will have a spike now from what we've seen eight days of heavy bombardment at the same time it brings with spikes to roughly a million israelis who live in the south of israel and who've been on the receiving end of constant and watches of rockets but i say if it holds because it is perceived as being rather fragile it certainly is a truce that came by surprise it followed a day of deadly violence in which some twenty eight israelis were injured in the first bus bombing in tel aviv since two thousand and six and there were massive israeli air strikes over gaza so the sense on the ground particularly in the hours

leading up to the announcement of the cease fire was that israel was going to go ahead with a ground offensive and to know who has said that he is willing to give this truce a chance he says however he does hold open the possibility to reopen the conflict at a later stage he said and i'm quoting i know that there are citizens in israel that expected and more severe military action to be taken and perhaps we will need to do so there is criticism towards netanyahu particularly among people in the south of the country who would have supported a ground offensive and wanted to see a much harsher israeli reaction we've had protests in several cities in the south we still don't have too much information exactly what the terms of the cease fire deal in fact say but i can tell you that israel for its side has committed to ending hostilities in gaza and at the same time stopping with its targeted killings and mass for its side has also said that it will stop firing rockets into southern israel and staging cross border attacks now there is

a lot of questions still hanging over the whole issue of whether or not it is what was left its blockade on gaza that has been in place for several years now we do understand that israel must begin talks re opening the sport of the border crossings and lifting the blockade and. easing restrictions on the movement of both people and goods the text does say that the whole discussion for the procedures for this will begin some twenty four hour was to the ceasefire was announced so while the ceasefire at the moment is holding a lot of tension on the ground and a lot of questions as to whether or not it will stand the test of time and dad's over whether the truce can hold out are fueled by the underlying disputes between israel and hamas that are far from resolved. brings us more on their deeply divided relations and how previous deals have panned out. this ceasefire deal doesn't even begin to address the root causes of the conflict and as long as they remain the decades long cycle of violence is almost assured to continue by now most people

lost track of all the previous cease fire agreements and more generally of where it all started and it became for the most part a chicken and egg conversation you have the years long suppression of the palestinians we saw radical forces among them rising in striking it's well with is well coming back at them so hard that even most peaceful palestinian started sympathizing with radical forces without going too far back in history in two thousand and six the palestinians in gaza elected hamas that promised a more affirmative response to the story of the occupation in response israel put gaza under blockade the list of import restrictions among many many other things included things like cement wood cattle animal medicine musical lindstrom and notebooks at one point even lentils pasta tomato paste and chocolates were on the list of items not allowed into gaza it's not easy to gauge what the blockade meant for the people there and all the humiliation that went with it is

well insisted that the purpose of the blockade was to pressure hamas into ending the rocket attacks the attacks did not stop they intensified in two thousand and eight is where a launched a major assault on gaza the operation cast lead killed more than a thousand palestinians and thirteen israelis did not solve the problem again it got worse and american officials keep repeating the mantra israel has the right to defend itself it sure does but the tragedy is that the palestinians to think they're defending themselves. israel's deputy foreign minister says most of those killed and injured in the bombardment of gaza quote deserved it because he claims they were armed terrorists palestinian health officials and human rights activists however insist more than two thirds of those who died were civilians with almost half of them children israel though says the ratio was lower r.t. talked to one of the country's m.p.'s a says her government conducted the assault in a very good way. israel is putting so much effort to ensure that

civilians are not hurt. i'm sorry but look at what we're spending on our money we're spending our money on defending our civilians making sure they're safe and making sure that we can we do not hurt civilians when we go to war what this hamas spend their money on they are hiding behind television crews they are hiding behind journalists and israel is doing something on paralleled in the history of warfare in making sure that people who are not involve are not killed and israel is really been commended by all countries not just for having the right to defend its citizens but also for the fact that it is couldn't ducting itself in a way that is very proportional and very measured journalist and anti-war activists don de bar says a cease fire might save the palestinians from bombs but not from the consequences

of the years long israeli blockade. their condition degraded from being storing to being starving and bombed and now the bombing apparently will stop and so that is a reason to celebrate as meager as it might seem in the face of starvation again the the precondition to dealing with that is to give the people that's not justice at least you know enough to survive and have a decent life right now it's a million and a half people and open an open air prison camp without food without medicine without the material means of survival except for those crumbs that are allowed to pass through the hands of israelis and until that changes israel will not see peace . on the situation surrounding the cease fire throughout the day and you can get fully across the story with our coverage and analysis from the outset arity dot com .

either leaders are set for a major showdown in brussels where the are gathering to thrash out a budget deal while some states are calling for with duction and spending those heavily dependent on funds or fiercely against any cuts britain is the loudest voice against a budget increase but as arsenal or smith reports the chances for it to strike a good deal are very slim. it's not shaping up to be a pleasant couple of days in brussels after three years of economic turmoil in the e.u. which is we can political ties stark divisions are emerging on one side northern europe and countries like the u.k. which are demanding huge cuts in spending to match. that's making countries to the thout and east who are dependent on cash from brussels very uneasy e.u.

president herman van rompuy is stuck between them he suggested seventy five billion euros cut to the more than trillion euros budget but that satisfied no one britain appears to warm to the idea but to cut two hundred fourteen billion old that means leaders from both sides of the budget divide are threatening. david cameron is heading to brussels on what many are calling mission impossible he's under intense pressure to cut budget contributions but the daily telegraph newspaper understands that his negotiating position is based on the e.u. budget the whole not the u.k. in the budget that could lead to him signing a deal that reduces it as a whole but increases britain's coach that wouldn't be at all popular and could easily lead to another rebellion in cameron's own government but as the situation stands it's not clear at all whether

a deal will be possible another greece were leaders are furious of the country being left in limbo european finance chiefs failed to agree on handing over the next thirty one billion euros athens vitally needs to avoid insolvency leaving it straining to meet debtors demands and with thousands of layoffs sparking even more protest economist says people there are on the edge. but you have a scary old kind of blame game going on between the greek government and i met for the troika all together a bit if you want to kind of have a dog ate my homework kind of excuses going on over and over again both of course were very disastrous and lots of fun at all no results for people here on the ground people are really not buying into this kind of there which is a blatant lie going on he's going to excuses i'm just an example just to show you how many things are going on are not really being very much reported or tool in a three hundred twenty five municipalities across the entire country until yesterday and i may have already lost count two hundred forty of them have been

either occupied. by their workers who are refusing to just let go and of course these are the workers you're threatened with in egypt in egypt and layoffs and you to get your latest kind of package i was going to doing by the greek parliament should be able to really put on getting on a flight on the ground and is a just a matter of international media picking up a time to actually. now the greek anger is well understood and the u.k. thousands of students who are e.s.l. rocketing tuition fees have marched through london as the government struggles to hand the country's finances we report on that later in the fower. plus bahrain's war and its sliding into a spiral of repression and violence by amnesty international which can damage the country's ongoing human rights abuses and its broken reform promises more on that after the short break.

british live demo minister lynne featherstone said that since women have babies it allows men to pass them up on the letter to power essentially children are a setback for women who want to be successful and equal to men so they want to give men the option of taking maternity leave or would that be paternity leave out of a kind of see the logic of her view but my question is featherstone is why exactly is success in the corporate world the primary goal of life for men and women as a feminist i would think you understand that wanting to fight your way up the ladder to buy a big car to replace your shortcomings is a very male way of judging success are women who choose to have families failures or at least unsuccessful in your book even as a man i know that my pocket is really empty after having the first of hopefully many kids but i don't see our child as a financial setback keeping me from buying an x. box guess what success is relative to the goal and maybe a corporate boardroom vision of success isn't for everyone women who have kids are

a tourist hot spot for people around the world we really enjoy it we just arrived here couple of days ago so we really enjoy tourism drives the economy here and go up but it comes at a price a new study found the tourists actually use eight times as much water the local during peak season sometimes only get access to running water for two hours every other day goings used to depend on wells in their neighborhoods for water but the population in the small state triples during the peak tourist season and with no proper sewage systems in place many wells have become contaminated forcing locals to rely on the erratic public supply. for emergency and then water is they really have who says that plastic. and we have to keep otherwise there's no war. but while the locals access to water is draining. just down the road water flows freely in the resorts or tourists enjoy fountains

fish ponds and splashing in the pools that's because hoteliers can afford to dominate the limited supply even if they do so illegally most five star hotels get water from tankers and most tankers operate without a license they take water from local wells in neighborhoods where extraction is banned by law. required so all right no you. know no food has to buy from the bank. but forced to buy the average tourist enjoying go as water feature is here for less than a week willing to pay off for short term fun but most are unaware of the frail future in this coastal community in my perspective i'm going to stay here only for . the. most of the concern for those born and raised here disparity is infuriating half the population relies on

tourists for their livelihood although it's one that leaves them without access to a basic human right i personally think is i mean you've lived till you've you've grown up in this and. you can assume is this fair i mean is this just in the system to be a say system especially to the so we always come. to the question is who actually benefits from judaism. but with no limit on how much water can be bought hotels will remain the highest bidder leaving the locals hanging out to dry preassure either r t go india as fierce fighting continues in syria a rising number of foreigners are reported to be taking part in assaults on government forces with damascus now providing the u.n. security council with a list of mercenaries it claims were brought in from abroad to support terrorist attacks had a lie where we've lined up the whole story. plus
